Differentiable rasterizer for vector font generation and editing

Abstract:

Systems and methods provide for generating glyph initiations using a generative font system. A glyph variant may be generated based on an input vector glyph. A plurality of line segments may be approximated using a differentiable rasterizer with the plurality of line segments representing the contours of the glyph variant. A bitmap of the glyph variant may then be generated based on the line segments. The image loss between the bitmap and a rasterized representation of a vector glyph may be calculated and provided to the generative font system. Based on the image loss, a refined glyph variant may be provided to a user.
